A snort of mirth escaped her at Daniil’s reply, pleasantly surprised at such a rebuttal from the todd she had taken to be more reserved (yet, considering who had raised him, should she really be at all surprised her cheeky wit had passed on?). Unable to resist grinning at him, she allowed the conversation to flow around her a short while more.
The nature of it sobered her expression somewhat. “Mmm you aren’t wrong there,” she murmured to Eirene, something distant in green eyes. Sken should be here. “Seems like fewer and fewer of us were so lucky after all the Imperium’s been through. Might not like gettin’ grey in the fur but each strand reminds me how lucky I am.” In truth the vixen had never imagined herself hitting twenty: to have found a future for herself and raised kits in a beautiful part of the world to boot was indeed a blessing few had been fortunate enough to enjoy. Many beasts far worthier than her with lives and futures of their own had reached the eternal shores of the dark forest without such luck.
Still, it would do little good to become maudlin on this of all days. “Ah well, doesn’t mean age doesn’t floor a beast sometimes, eh?” Tanya cast Daniil and Asta a mischievous smirk. “You know, the last time I was in this city I was watchin’ Caden toddle ‘round when he was knee-high to me. Took me a good moment to realise this great lump of marten’s the same beast.”
